Description

Observation

I saw this at least twice in different pipelines (salt-states-openqa and openqa/openqa-review):

Cleaning up file based variables
00:00
ERROR: Job failed: pod "runner-25ldi6vv-project-5909-concurrent-0w2q6j" status is "Failed"
test-worker
Duration: 5 minutes 11 seconds
Timeout: 1h (from project)

Runner: #462 (25Ldi6Vv) gitlab-worker2:sle15.1
Commit cb53da6b  in !548
Increase {flush_,}interval and jitter for web UI

 Pipeline #185243 for telegraf_webui_intervals
test-worker
test-general
test-general-test
test-monitor
test-webui

Affected jobs so far passed after retry.

This will likely happen again because we run more in gitlab CI pipelines.

Just from today: https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-maintenance/bot-ng/-/jobs/557134

Suggestions

These problems are all outside the normal flow of what we can control from our side. But what we should be able to do is create EngInfra ticket and escalate the problem.

Seems to me like a bug in GitLab Kubernetes executor or a missconfiguration, in both cases nothing we can do anything with apart of filling a ticket for EngInfra.

I will add similar error from other project: https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-maintenance/openQABot/-/jobs/536484

And I got probably another occurrence here: https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-maintenance/bot-ng/-/jobs/546059

In this case, the job actually did succeed, I suspect there is an issue during artifact uploading that causes the job to fail.

Last week, there was an update to Gitlab 14.2 (which also included an update for the gitlab-runner). There are no new failures since last Thu in our jobs (which still runs pretty frequently), so we can hope for the best and claim this issue as solved. We might reopen this ticket if any such error reappears.

Another instance last night. Followed up on a response from infra saying this is due to disk space shortage on the container host which causes runners to be "evicted". I pointed out that manual intervention is not good enough because of alert fatigue.

So SD-62248 got closed, and the situations seems under control at this point. So I'm thinking we can resolve it. There's ENGINFRA-705 on Jira for a follow-up.

Mentioned in the daily. Closing since from our side the problem's been resolved and not observed for a couple months.
